Unboxing: Birchbox October 2015

This was the month of mascaras. Normally I wouldn't be too crazy about that but my mascara stash was depleting and it gave me the chance to try out a mascara that I've been curious about so I would say this was a win all around. Now for the rest of the box...you'll just have to wait and see.

For those of you that are unfamiliar with Birchbox it is one of those monthly beauty sample boxes where they send you a box of 5-6 (sometimes even 7 with bonus extras) samples and deluxe samples. Occasionally there will be full size products too! The brands they send are all fairly high-end and they have a point system and customer service staff that just can't be beat. For $10 a month you are able to select a sample from a select group of choices and have more surprises delivered to you based on your beauty profile! Have I convinced you to sign up yet? If so I would love it if you would do it through my referral link here! Feel free to also go to www.birchbox.com if you want to look around without any strings attached to me.

The theme for October 2015 is Positive Force. I love the beautiful pink marble box for this month, these boxes really just keep getting better and better!

Benefit Roller Lash Super-Curling & Lifting MascaraFull Size Value: $24 | Sample Size Value: $8.47
This is Benefit's newest mascara and I've been curious about it for awhile. I almost selected my favorite They're Real mascara as my sample choice but I decided this was a good opportunity to try it out. Look out for this in my empties post in the coming months to see what I thought!

I have it marked in my profile that I don't want hair products and frankly I'm sick of it! I don't use any of these leave-in items at all. Good thing I know somehow who will otherwise it would be a huge waste.

CLEAN White WoodsFull Size Value: $69 | Sample Size Value: $1
I'm so sick of perfume samples. Maybe I'm not even getting that many but I got one last month and one this month, just go away! This is a "woodsy" scent which I'm just not crazy about at all.

Too Cool For School DINOPLATZ HIGHLIGHTERFull Size Value: $33 | Sample Size Value: $5.50
This is a Korean brand and I have a few of these products from my Memebox obsession last year but I don't have this one! It's a liquid highlighter so I'm excited to try it out. I love this brand because it's a dinosaur in the city and I love it!

Caudalie Make-up Remover Cleansing WaterFull Size Value: $28 | Sample Size Value: $7
I'm amassing quite a collection of makeup removers, I need to start using them. Cleansing waters are all the rage and I'll admit I have quite a few of them but have yet to use any!

Caudalie Instant Detox MaskFull Size Value: $39 | Sample Size Value: $1.56
Face masks are one of my favorites and the fact that this is a detox mask..even better!Value of Box: $20.31
